Hi 850ers,

I'm thinking of purchasing an 96 850 Turbo Wagon or an 97 850 GLT Turbo Wagon. My initial thought is that the older 2.3L turbo is the better engine than the 2.4L light pressure turbo. The 2.3 produced more power, but is it's as reliable as the 2.4? I'd like to hear opinions on the pros and cons of these two models.

Thanks,
Eric
